About This Architecture
Netflix-style microservices architecture demonstrates a production-grade streaming platform with distributed services handling user management, authentication, content delivery, recommendations, video streaming, payments, and notifications. Traffic flows from Web Users, Mobile Users, and Smart TV through CDN to API Gateway, then Load Balancer distributes requests across seven independent microservices. User Service and Auth Service share User DB with Redis Cache for session management, Content Service manages Content DB, Recommendation Service analyzes Analytics DB, Video Streaming Service accesses Video Storage, while Payment Service and Notification Service communicate asynchronously via Message Queue. Service Registry enables dynamic service discovery, Monitoring tracks system health, and Logging captures API Gateway events.
